Mixed Plate Final

11am - Valkyrs C vs Castletown Southerners

Mixed Cup Final

Mixed Bowl Final

3pm - Vikings D vs Bacchas Colts

Report by Ben Cunningham:

In the Mixed Cup, Valkyrs A play Bacchas A - Valkyrs A took the league title on the final day of the season with a 4-3 over Bacchas A in a thriller of a game, Bacchas A came runners up in the premiership and will be looking to make up for missing out on getting the league title. 

This game will be another thriller for sure and possibly could go all the way to penalty flicks - the umpires for this game are George Powell and Paul Hunter with Jon Whiting on tech desk.

In the Mixed Plate, Valkyrs C play Castletown Southerners - Valkyrs C finished third in Division One after a mixture of results all season however Castletown Southerners finished second in Division One after leading all the way until the final two weekends of the season when Valkyrs B who took the league title beat southerners on goal difference. 

There was a gap in the points between the two sides in the league but could Valkyrs C cause a cup upset or can Southerners take the silverware to make up for missing out on the league title? The umpires for this game are Louise Corkill and Darryl Jago with Chris Wells on tech desk.

In the Mixed Bowl, Vikings D play Bacchas Colts - Vikings D finished champions of Division Two winning every game they played, Bacchas Colts finished third in the league with them having a good run of form. 

Vikings D will definitely be going for the double and getting the title and add the bowl to the success but Bacchas Colts will do all they can to try and get the better of Vikings what ever way possible - the umpires for this game are Jon Gower-Jackson and Emily Middleton with Paul Hunter on the tech desk.
